  1. Has there ever been a bigger waste of talent? I don't think so. Thank God for the signing of Wade Miller, once he's ready, I'd give him the job regardless of how Wood is. He's long worn out his welcome, ship him off for a bag of baseballs.
  2. If your pitching staff all play to their potential, your team will be incredible. As for a standard, 12-team roto or H2H public league (im assuming thats what you are in?), I'm not sure how well they will far. But hell, if that was a real team in the MLB, they'd win the World Series. This is one of the reasons I wish public fantasy leagues implemented more important baseball stats like OBP, SLG, and such.
  3. Yeah I agree with your assessment on Dunn/Mulder = Delgado/Garcia for the most part, but since Delgado has a much better BA and there is no OBP stat in this league, I figured it would be a solid upgrade.
  4. LeBron got a piece of it. And how far did Gordon go without dribbling there, was he past the 3 point line? I must've missed that, I'm listening to music so I don't have to listen to the announcers. Plus I'm waiting for Mavs/Spurs. And yes, that was an epically long time without dribbling.
  5. Gotta make your layups.
  6. I'm shipping off Brad Lidge, Mark Mulder, and Adam Dunn for Michael Young, Freddy Garcia, and Carlos Delgado. Delgado will play first for me. Young takes over at SS for Carlos Guillen, who will remain on my bench. My other closers are Dave Weathers, Keith Foulke, and Flash Gordon. Here is my team after the deal goes through. C Ramon Hernandez 1B Carlos Delgado 2B Brian Roberts SS Michael Young 3B Aramis Ramirez OF Manny Ramirez OF Pat Burrell OF Brian Giles Util Raul Ibanez Bench Craig Monroe Bench Carlos Guillen Bench Preston Wilson SPs: Chris Carpenter, Mark Prior, Chris Capuano, Jeff Weaver, Josh Towers RPs: Tom Gordon, Dave Weathers, Keith Foulke I really like my team after this trade. I improve greatly at BA with Delgado, while not losing much in the HR department. I acquire one of the top SS's in the game, and if Guillen is healthy and returns to 04 form, I have another bat I can ship off or put at Utility if I need to. I'm losing one of the top closers and a solid starter, but saves aren't all that important to me, and if Foulke returns to old form and Gordon is solid, I should be fine. I feel my 5 starters are still solid enough to keep me up there in points in this roto league. What's everyone think and does anyone have any suggestions?
  7. Why? Vitale blew that WAY out of proportion. It's far too dangerous for the players, coaches, refs and the fans themselves. I've heard some scary stories from UCLA football players and a former Cal football player. They stormed on the court with 1.7 seconds left in the game. I feel that in football, storming the field is a lot more dangerous than storming the court, with goal posts being torn down and such. That's just me, however.
  8. Yeah we suck. But hey, Mizzou baseball plays their first home game tomorrow. Scherzer! I'm gonna try to make at least part of it. Yeah I have a meeting at 3:30 so hopefully I'll get there sometime before the 3rd...does Scherzer have the mound?
  9. Yeah we suck. But hey, Mizzou baseball plays their first home game tomorrow.
  10. Yeah that was awesome. I have no idea what Eaton was doing there.
  11. Counter him Maddux for Teixiera just for fun.
  12. Chris Ray - BAL Chad Orvella - TB Bobby Jenks - CWS Mike MacDougal - KC Chris Reitsma - ATL Joe Borowski - FLA Tom Gordon - PHI Dave Weathers - CIN Mike Gonzalez - PIT Brian Fuentes - COL Don't forget about Eric Gagne, I'm not really sure where he is going in most drafts but I imagine he could be a mid to late steal. Also Danys Baez, because if Gagne struggles/reinjures himself, Baez will take over.
  13. id be interested, an all-NSBB keeper league would be cool
  14. Is there any reason for the Bears not to go after Vinatieri now that he can test the FA waters?
  15. Can I borrow your friends next year? Haha sure. Oh and I didn't mention (not to rub it in) but all of the first group of games that my best friend bought are bleachers. :D
  16. My best friend got these today: May 30 CIN 7.05 (4) May 31 CIN 7.05 (6) Jun 13th HOU 7.05 (4) Jun 18th DET 1.20 (4) Jun 26th MIL 7.05 (4) July 27th STL 7.05 (6) Aug 1st ARI 7.05 (4) Aug 5th PIT 3.05 (4) My other friend got these: Opening Day (6) April 8th (6) Both weekend Sox games (6) July 28th, Cardinals (6) And another friend of mine got these: April 9th - STL July 30th - STL Looks like I'll be spending a lot of time at Wrigley this summer :-D
  17. Does anyone know where I can draft a team for free using the auction style? I'm having a hard time finding one.
  18. Closest neifi will get to second base all season? We can only hope.
  19. I thought that was you over there! I was in the left part of the main section, about halfway up. And I saw Bryan make a fool of himself on Kiss Kam too, he's in my Spanish class. But yeah, Mizzou sucks. Haha, there's a distinct possibility I was the only one making any noise on that side section. Dandridge(aka Gumby) is my new favorite player, I was yelling for him to come in the whole game. I think I saw you during a timeout too. At least there was free pizza. Haha yes, you were the only one into it. I was impressed. And I HATE Dandridge, haha. Watkins and Snyder are eerily similar in their lack of ability to make mid-game adjustments. And free pizza is always good. $25,000 a year, I should get free pizza more often.
  20. Everyone stop posting pictures. I told myself I wasn't looking forward to this season and I didn't care. Now this is changing everything.
